Thanks for your comments. I will try to devote some time to add other names of other architects that HK mentored in Puerto Rico, both statesiders whom he invited to Puerto Rico (such as MacClintock) and Puerto Rican architects, as well. I've been told that architect William Thun, who partnered with MacClintock (see plaque at the "Doña Fela" Municipal Garage in Old San Juan), may have been mentored by HK, but I haven't been able to confirm that.Pr4ever (talk) 15:38, 8 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Nonza, how are you? Thank you for creating the Architects section in the list, good call. I have only one request. Please add a reliable source to each of the names, which is a requirement. This will help those who are not familiar with the contributions of our architects to verify the person's conection with Puerto Rico. Gracias.

Nonza, thank you for letting me know what was going on the Lindsay Daen article. My friend Looper did the revertbefore I got to it, but what I did is put the article in a temporary protection mode to keep new and non-registered users from vandalizing it. Wikipeida, regarless of all it's rules will never be a reliable encyclopedia and it's the fault of the people who run the system. The main problem with Wikipedia is that it let's anyone edit the articles without requiring that they register. That is why 99% of the vandalism is comitted by non-registered users and they get away with it because administors are told to "not" block IPS addresses which are used my many people.

However, I don't care. I'll block any vandal whose only contributions to the Pedia is vandalism. If anyone vandals your articles, you revert at least twice (not three times) and then let me know. If you have any problems at all you let me know. Tony the Marine (talk) 20:41, 11 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Nonza, I took a look at the edits made by the non-registered user and somehow they do not seem to be bad faith edits, since there is nothing which may be considered as offensive. Do the following, check around (google search) to see if the edits have any truth to them, they just may. If not then we'll revert Tony the Marine (talk) 21:28, 23 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

• Good! What I will do is revert it back to your version on the bases that additional information must cite and provise a reilable verifiable source. I will then tell the un-registered user reason for the revert on his/her user page. This should take care of it. If it doesn't and the person does it again, you can revert to your version twice (not 3 times). If he/she reverts you three times. let me know. Tony the Marine (talk) 02:38, 24 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Como estas? There is a message for you here message, please read carefully. Gracias Tony the Marine (talk) 06:18, 3 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

You just got back from Corsica, lucky you. My descendants are from there. Actually my family on my mother's side is from Yauco (Los Mattei) and my father (Los Santiago's) from Spain. Yeah, I've got that Boriuca-Corsican blood in me. Anyway, disregard the "old" message above and I have taken the name off the list. You know, you should add a "criteria for inclusion" like I did in the header of the List of Puerto Ricans which states that addition names "must" require a reliable verifiable source or added names will be removed. It works. Tony the Marine (talk) 00:46, 16 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

• Header of "List of Puerto Rican architects", Perfecto! Now, if anyone adds a name that doesn't fllow the rules, you revert it and in the edit summary you post something like this: "Removed Alvarez, all new additions must cite and provide reliable verifiable sources as required by Wikipedia policy". If you have any problems just let me know.

My mother was Hilda Rodriguez Mattei daughter of Luis and Isabel Mattei. My mother's sister was Reina Rodriguez, she was a well known teacher in Yauco and her husband name was a Corsican businessman whom everybody called Liche. When my mother remarried, she used her husbands surname "Pop", funny last name I always said. The thing is that people have always confused my family as being Italians and they still ask me if I am Italian and when I tell them that I am Puerto Rican they seem surprised. That is one of the reasons that motivated me to write Corsican immigration to Puerto Rico and all the other immigration to Puerto Rico articles (except Dominican, I didn't write that one).

I fixed the situation for you. I moved "Cordero Ernesto" to Ernesto Cordero (musician). Then, I went to the Ernesto Cordero page and created a disambiguation page for both "Ernesto Cordero" from PR and "Ernesto J. Codero" the Mexican. Check it out. I also, fixed the wikilink in the List of Puerto Ricans. Now, the only thing that I want you to do is to add the reference of notability of Cordero in the "List" as to keep within the rules. Cuidate mi pana. Tony the Marine (talk) 19:47, 8 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

When I first wrote the Flag of Puerto Rico article years ago, it was titled "The flags of Puerto Rico" and was intended to be just that, an article about the flags of Puerto Rico. However, with time someone (who made a mess with the edit history) came along and changed the title to the current one.

I am thinking of two options per consensus.

1. Leaving the current title, "spliting" the article, keeping only the story of the "Flag" and it's evolution and creating separate articles about the "municipal" and "political" flags and have them interwiklinked in the "See also" sections.

or ....

2. Changing the title back to "Flags of Puerto Rico", its original title and keeping the article as it is, which would be less troublesome.

or ....

3. Just leave it as it is.

Your thoughts will be highly appreciated. Tony the Marine (talk) 01:28, 7 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The name of "Beatriz del Cueto" has been removed from the "List of Puerto Ricans". It is nothing personal, but you must follow the instructions like everyone else: Before adding a name to this list! Each addition to the list must also provide a reliable verifiable source which cites the person's notability and/or the person's link to Puerto Rico, otherwise the name will be removed. Once you follow the indicated instructions, you may re-add the name to the list. Tony the Marine (talk) 22:40, 12 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

• Hi once more, Nonza. I understand her notability, she reminds me of Tony Croatto who was more Puerto Rican then some of the Puerto Ricans who were and are born in the island. Just re-add her name once more with the source and that is it. You take care, Tony the Marine (talk) 22:08, 13 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
